Protect against concurrency of user requesting to register a timestamp offset (where the driver fills the timestamp when the command submission has finished executing) to a specific user interrupt ID. The protection is basically to allow only one timestamp registration request to be handled at a time. This is needed because the user can decide to re-use a timestamp offset (register an already registered offset, to a different interrupt ID). This means the request will cause the timestamp node to move from one interrupt list to another interrupt list. In such scenario, without proper protection, we could end up adding the same node twice to the interrupts wait lists.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
